Life at Tri-Cities
The Tri-Cities School of Preaching & Christian Development develops life-long students of the Bible. You will spend two or three years of intensive study, with classes three days each week led by highly qualified instructors.
Outside the classroom, assignments increase your knowledge and your ability to develop as a student of the Bible, and as a teacher and presenter of what Scripture teaches.
Training preachers
We desire that God have workers to proclaim the glorious message of Christ, and we help men know how to defend the faith in the modern age.
Equipping Christians
Elders, deacons, teachers, parents, students of the Word, those retired and new converts are encouraged to audit any class at no cost except their time and best effort.
Learn the tools of ministry today
The H.W. Simons Recording Studio is a tremendous blessing and addition to the curriculum. Students learn and practice sermon and lesson presentation, social media video design, bulletin and flyer design, podcast and radio programming, audio recording, video and sound editing, website design, children’s teaching videos, and much more.
The studio is in production on multiple video series for the Gospel Broadcasting Network and World Video Bible School. It is also home to the Arise to Truth Radio Program, live every Tuesday and Thursday from 2 to 3 pm on Facebook, YouTube and WZAP 690 AM.
